"Guru" or spiritual mentor is a function, not just a person. It
is extolled in the Puranas and Tantras as a transmission from a person
to a person.
However, many argue it cannot rightly be a function of only a human
being. It is also considered a function of nature.

Sorry you guys dis-like the term. But it is part of the TM spectrum;
within the 'range', if you will.
I'm not talking about FairfieldLife. Mostly on yahoo's FFL the extremes are
under-represented or seldom surface directly from the sources.
Mostly what we hear here is more of the 'in between'.
